By contrast, the Pink Floyd vendors in urban Canada managed to stock the whole back catalogue by 1975... not to mention bootlegs! There's a recording from the Ivor Wynne stadium in Hamilton, a gig from before Wish You Were Here was even released, where crowd members can be heard shouting requests for "Fingal's Cave"!
